Nikki Eckhart is searching for clarity and space to breathe. Years of criticism from her older sister have slowly chipped away at her confidence. A family cruise to celebrate her parents’ thirtieth wedding anniversary might be more than just a holiday. It could be her chance to figure out why herh sister treats her so terribly, and maybe she’ll reclaim the parts of herself she’s lost.
Gavin Fletcher is a master of running away. Haunted by a traumatic childhood, he’s spent years drifting from one place to the next. Love? Commitment? Not in his vocabulary. He’s only on the cruise to support his recently divorced sister, a rare display of loyalty. Once the cruise ends, he’s moving on. Again.
On day one of the cruise, Nikki and Gavin crash into each other. Literally. What starts as a harmless fling turns into something deeper as they share spontaneous island adventures and late-night conversations under the stars. Somewhere along the way the lines are blurred, and real feelings begin to bloom.
Gavin helps Nikki regain her confidence. Nikki helps Gavin see there’s more to life than running. As their emotional defences start to crack, Nikki wants all in, but Gavin wants out. Opening his heart means riskingn a fall and there’s never been anyone there to catch him. Unless Nikki can.
